Overview

The Monoprice 106129 is a 6-foot flat High-Speed HDMI cable designed for users who need a clean, low-profile connection between components. Its flat construction makes it especially well-suited for running behind wall-mounted TVs, along baseboards, or through conduit where a round cable would be too bulky. The 24AWG conductors are thicker than those found in many budget cables, helping ensure consistent signal delivery across the full length.

What sets this cable apart from standard HDMI options is its CL2 fire-safety rating, which certifies it for permanent installation inside residential walls. This makes it a practical choice for home theater setups where exposed cabling is unacceptable. It supports all High-Speed HDMI features including HDMI Ethernet Channel, Audio Return Channel, and 3D video. For most home entertainment connections at moderate distances, it provides the performance and safety certifications needed without overspending.
